Mark Clements reports:
The ongoing threat of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) must receive urgent global attention as it transcends its avian origins to affect domestic and wild mammals with increasing frequency, the World Organization for Animal Health (WOAH) said.
Of particular worry, it continued, was the ongoing circulation of HPAI in dairy cattle in the U.S., which is raising concerns within the international community.
The statement came on the heels of a review, published in science journal Nature in September, of sustained mammal-to-mammal bird flu transmission in diverse species, led by the U.K.’s Pirbright Institute, that revealed that global control strategies were not working.
The news also comes on the heels of the downplaying of avian influenza by the Trump administration. There is no U.S. leadership here.
